Can a L10 steam locomotive run on 18"and22" bachman track?

Is L10 a 4-4-0 with six wheel tender? I'm guessing it would be like Edward in the Thomas series?
Is this what you are talking about? If so, it says it will work on 18" radius curves. I had to do some research to find out what an L10 is.

I found this about L10. There were five made in 1902.

And this toy on Ebay that says it an L10. It's a 4-4-0 with six wheel tender.

The L10 steam I have is a 2_8_0 would that make any difference on the 18 or 22" bachman curves?

Is it Bachmann? It is HO right?
I can not find reference to a Bachmann L10. I can not find a reference to a 2-8-0 being an L10, only the 4-4-0.
You are not giving much information to work with. Can you show me where you find the info that an L10 is 2-8-0 or have a box it came in that says L10?
Here is Bachmannn's Baldwin 2-8-0 and that says it will run on  18" radius.
